For the life of me, I can't see where the ref got 6 minutes from in that second half.
Three goals, Haynes injury and the substitutions would surely only make 3 or so.
Timewasting went on, but wasn't outrageous, so I just can't see it - especially as we've seen far more time wasting, subs etc and only 3 or 4 minutes added on in games in the past.
I don't know - maybe I've missed or forgotten something?
So, serious question - maybe to any refs out there - how did he come up with 6 minutes?

Everyone seated around me was gobsmacked...Anyone closer to SCP see his reaction ?
First half, 4 goals and no injuries = 2 mins. Therefore it's 30 seconds per goal.
Second half, 3 goals, an injury and a few subs. Should have been 3 mins max!
Love the fact we're discussing this after a great win!
Also, like Nicholas, when 6 mins came up, I wasn't concerned, but hoped for another home goal - but even at the time my immediate reaction was 'What the f***?'
from 45 mins - 90 mins if you add 30 seconds for each goal and substitution = 3 minutes, add 30 seconds for each stop in play for the 6 bookings = another 3 minutes.
add to that from 90 mins+ the 2 goals and 1 sub i'd imagine he played over 7.5 minutes.
a stadium clock wired up to the 4th official, which stops when time is added on, like in ice hockey; an automatic electronic whistle which then sounds bang on 90.00, and:
a clear statement at the beginning of the seas on about standard add-ons such as 30 seconds for a goal or a sub.
Can anybody give me a good reason why it should not be done like that?

Also there is no such rule of 30 seconds a sub, it depends how long it takes. 30 seconds is an average. There were only 4 anyway as we had only made 2 and they only did it twice (2 being at the same time)
No time should be added for goals except in the case of over zealous and long celebrations unless they have changed the rules recently
As has been said, you get games with long injury breaks and proper time wasting and the board goes up with 3 or 4.
6 was a complete farce.
